There’s no denying that Shah Rukh Khan has taken the box office by storm with his comeback film Pathaan! Smashing one record after another, fans are raving about the film’s powerful action scenes, catchy songs and of course witty dialogues. However, while audiences all over the world are loving the dialogues, SRK himself had a rather cold reaction to them.
Pathaan’s screenwriter on SRK’s reaction
Talking to a news portal, Pathaan’s screenwriter Abbas Tyrewala revealed that unlike audiences, who cheered and hooted over multiple dialogues, King Khan had little to no response to them. “I happened to meet SRK and he said ‘good dialogues that’s it,” the screen and dialogue writer said in a conversation with Bollywood Life.
He further added that while there was a lot of excitement for Pathaan as it was Shah Rukh Khan’s comeback film, he kept that burden out of his mind and went about doing what he always does. “I don’t meet any actors before writing the dialogues, I just do my service like I am guided by the director and producer and most of the credit goes to Aditya Chopra and his beautiful vision to make this spectacular film,” he remarked.
